Take Home NC History at Patterson's Mill

If you love Americana, you'll fall in love with Patterson's Mill Country Store, a turn-of-the-century doctor's office now showcasing all kinds of local crafts, antiques and other goods.

By Chelsea Pieroni

"Patterson's Mill Country Store has been open since 1973, but don't be surprised if it feels much older: the memorabilia and artifacts displayed in the aisles and on the walls harken back to the original 1870s Patterson & Company Store.

With a permanent collection of Americana that includes a fully furnished, turn-of-the-century doctor's office, as well as a collection of historic pharmaceutical goods and tobacco advertisements, in addition to local crafts, antiques, and collectibles that are available for purchase, this country store is a trip back into the past." –Visit Durham NC
